Product Data: Force Transducer/Impact Hammer - Type 8203
Force Transducer/Impact Hammer Type 8203 is a unique structural testing kit designed for use with
lightweight and delicate structures. The force transducer measures the force applied to the structure. It
can be connected to the hammer kit for impact testing or to a small exciter (e.g., Brüel & Kjær Type 4810)
via the stinger kit provided.
USES
❍ Dynamic and impact-force measurements on small structures
❍ Measurement of frequency response functions using both impact and
continuous excitation techniques
❍ As part of a dynamic structural testing system for modal analysis and the
prediction of structural response
FEATURES
❍ Compact size and low weight allied with an all-welded, robust construction
❍ Good linearity
❍ Excellent, long-term stability due to artificial aging
❍ Individually calibrated and easily mounted
❍ Easily attached to the stinger and hammer kits
❍ Negligible changes to dynamic properties of test structure
❍ Comes with all necessary accessories for every type of mounting
❍ Titanium tip seating to minimise lateral deformation of tip material during impact
❍ Aluminium shaft to reduce occurence of double impact
❍ Charge mode (PE) output
